A spectator chooses random Wikipedia articles freely that end up creating a word of your choice: A personalized revelation like the spectator’s name, company name, title, anything you chose!
Perform Akronym anytime and anywhere as an impactful and personal effect. It’s always ready and doesn’t require any advance set up: You don’t even need your own phone or pocket space!
It works in English, Spanish, Italian, German, Dutch, Portuguese, and French. Broadcasting rights not included.
A spectator named Jade rolls an imaginary dice and decides to land on number 3. Next, you instruct her – using her own phone – to freely select random hyperlinks (blue words) on Wikipedia to navigate from page to page. You note down her choices, like in following example:
MAJORITYNothing to download, install, or update: This is NOT an app!
Borrowed phone: You only need a spectator with a phone and an internet connection.
Nothing to hide: Every action happens in full view, without any hidden screen, NFC tag, QR code, strange URL etc.
Nothing on you: No phone, no props. A complete 7-minute routine, ready anywhere and anytime.
Visual: Akronym is a mentalism effect that's also a visual experience.
Stand out: This unique effect is nothing like anything your spectators have ever witnessed before.
A personal souvenir: Tear off the notepad page with their name as a souvenir to take home.
Perfect for corporate shows: Reveal a company name from words chosen by different collaborators, making your performance tailored, memorable, and impossible!
Amplify your Akronym impact by adding IMF: Reveal the last Wikipedia article your spectator chooses without seeing their phone.
There is no secret preparation.
No, and you don't even need to own a phone to perform Akronym (yeah we know it's pretty unlikely.)
No.
Throughout the performance, you receive feedback to ensure that everything is working as you want it to. This makes it a very comfortable routine to perform. No more anxiety about whether everything is working properly or not.
Akronym works across modern phones, but for the most reliable experience we recommend Google Chrome on Android and Safari on iOS.
For now, Akronym can be performed in English, Spanish, Italian, German, Dutch, Portuguese, and French.
No, broadcasting rights are not included. If you intend to broadcast Akronym on any channel, please contact us directly.
IMF can either be performed as a mind-reading phase or change the plot of the routine entirely by making a prediction at the very beginning. The index is what makes the prediction version possible.
That is literally incredible!
That is sick. I love it!
It is a closer in my show. Mind-blowingly good!
